I plan on running this bad boy until it bites the dust. And then I'll get an AMD card so I have an easier time with the drivers. Took me days to get my games running on Debian.

It shouldn't be too hard, and considering private key authentication, you could even use a single sign-in for multiple platforms/accounts, and use the public key as an identifier to link them across platforms. I know there's already a couple proof-of-concept Gemini forums/BBSs out there already. Maybe they just need a popularity boost?

Does this disable updates though? My wife somehow had Win11 installed on her pc without enabling secure boot, and her updates got so far behind that now it refuses to update and needs to be reinstalled.

To actually answer your question, Wurm Online is an MMO based on player governance of a medeival-like world, with terraforming and construction as a focus. Basically one big medeival role play Minecraft server. It's a bunch of fun though, if you can find the time to literally build a village from the ground up in your free time.

Outsourcing is extracting wealth from another nation. How can you possibly compare that to lifting ones own citizens out of poverty?

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but I'm not entirely sure that what you were cleaning was soap. 👀

I was disappointed in the graphics, but my stats seemed right. The slide for my top podcasts had black text on a black background, but luckily all my top 5 podcasts have their name on their logo. Still looks kinda stupid though.

You're not really expected to repeatedly remove the HDMI port itself from the laptop

All the people saying buy a dongle are forgetting to mention that dongles stop working all the fucking time. It's yet another potential point of failure that stops ALL work dead in its tracks if it happens.

As usual, the real villain was capitalism all along!

Not arguing, just curious: what makes chroot insecure? I've used it for installing Gentoo, but I don't really understand what it's doing under the hood.
